Aspyr ships Guitar Hero III for Mac

We said it had been confirmed a week ago, and here it is today, shipping. This is one of many mainstream video games coming to the Mac – although this is technically still a “port” from Windows – Aspyr has done a great job with their previous “ports” like The Sims and RollerCoaster Tycoon 3. The game is now on store shelves and costs $79.99. It comes on hybrid disc for Mac and Windows and includes one “X-Plorer” guitar controller. Guitar Hero III is the latest in the series of best-selling games on the PlayStation and XBOX consoles. It hasn’t been such a success on the PC, but that’s not to say that it won’t be on the Mac.

The Mac version has been included in new hybrid boxes now shipping to retailers from Aspyr, so remember to check the box contents before you purchase the game to make sure you have the right version. Only the Mac and PC versions are bundled together. Mac system requirements are: Mac OS X v10.4.10 or later (including Leopard), Intel Core 2 Duo 2GHz or faster, 1GB RAM, 5.1GB hard disk space, ATI Radeon X1600 or Nvidia GeForce 7300 or better 3D graphics with 128MB VRAM or more, DVD-ROM.
